Yes, used to have this many years ago, got it from Graham Coats of Grantham

Part of the MAG, MAS-TOK, CHAR-TOK. One of the label owners was married to a member of the Sterphonics (Mas-tok)

Don't know this

Hi Dazz, yes im ok thanks, used to have the D Town (grey issues) very much overlooked I think, may have its day just needs playing more often.

He doesn't come up in my book, I know he is not with us anymore

Yes its the same person real name Donald Erquhart

For me Morris Lamont Chestnut and out of Detroit Edward Hamilton

Its Dusty Williams on this track mate, not Dusty Wilson or as the writer credit says Claude Williams

Yes indeed, a lot of old faces and a lot of love all about, a wonderful day despite the circumstances, he would of loved it x

As you know Val we are both very saddened with the loss of Dave (Boxy) With him being so humble and modest he never got round to putting pen to paper of your time in Chicago and who you both didn't know, well you know what I'm saying. Promoting can be a thankless task at times but you stuck with it and for those who took advantage of the live artists at the Wilton Ballroom, can I say on their behalf as well as mine and Nicolas, thank-you. You don't get many chances in life to see our hero's perform on stage and because of what you both did as is your belief to promote in giving us so much pleasure. R.I.P. Dave, few people in life can be what you are and what your SOUL advises us to be. Gilly and Nicola

To add a bit more I found thisRW-1967-09-23-OCR-Page-0010.pdf

Yes, nice and true words Mick, this music was his passion, even though he slowed down on going out, health reasons, he kept up with what was going on. His knowledge was quite unreal at times as was his love for the music. He made a point of being friends with the creators of the music we love such as Fab Glanton and Rose Battiste and some would stop over at his place in helping promotors to put them on the UK stage. He gave a lot to the scene in so many ways, the scene should in these circumstances think on, please give something, please. Gilly

If it don't calm down a bit it will go up its own arse. There are more numbers of people connected with the soul scene than there has ever been, trouble is that 2/3 are of talc and handbag folks. The sooner they F*** off the better, of course posting things like this is a waste of time because they are unlikely to be on soul source anyway

Thank-you I will

A dear friend whom I loved to bits, mad as fuck, up to the brim with knowledge. I'm gonna miss you David my thoughts are with Cheryl x

From memory I'm sure the US and the UK LP tracks are slightly different on this song

He was the man who sang amongst the best lyrics any song has ever had, this one. don't care if hes white, so an I

Used to collect versions of this song, don't remember how many I had but it was rather a lot, since those days I could of added another 20 easy

I love every thing about Jamerson, just read the book on him by Dr Licks, great insight into a great man but sad was his ending

Hi Russ, ive just bought 3 copies off Tim, they are a truly amazing read

Yes i'm sure your right, I noticed his avatar on 2Facebook this afternoon. brill

No mate, that was Edward Hamilton

Andy, thank-you, I hold you, Tim, Roger Banks and Andy Dyson up there and way above me, your all more studious than myself but I can spell cat.

Put this up on Tim's thread (coloured man)

Yes mate after the Twirl 45 and before the first Impact release, both sang by Gerald Mathis taking the lead and fits nicely in with those BMI registration docs that have been put up today. Wait till I drop the bombshell on the Lollipops Group.
